Hammer View Issue Created 20 years ago2004-07-10 04:42:21 UTC by RabidMonkey

Anyone know if I can enlarge the texture window/map info/options window in Hammer because my pathnames are C:ValveSteamSteamAppsRabidmonkey777half-lifevalve and I cannot see which WADs are in use, so I can't tell if I need to wadinclude, or which WAD to remove from my texture list, due to the extremely long pathnames.

open Tools/Options../Textures and highlight the required pathname, browse with the arrow keys, that still works right?

It moves the selection box up and down, but doesn't scroll the names.

I don't think there is a way to expand that box. However, you can run a compile and your wads are listed in your compile log along with the paths. You actually only need to run the csg part of the compile to get this info, so it can be run very quickly.

Hmm...I'll try that, hopefully it lists them in the order they are listed in Hammer so I can figure out which ones to delete it.

I could probably expand that box, but by re-hacking hammer to make it bigger, and I have no idea how to do that .

In my case, it did list the wads in the order they are listed in the texture configuration box.

Alright, thanks.

Use SUBST!

Start -> Run -> "cmd" (for NT) or "command" (for 9x), then "SUBST /?"

Wow. That is an incredibly useful command. I'll be binding directories to virtual drives all night. Thanks.

'tis.

Everyone should be forced to use DOS for at least one year before being allowed onto Windows

I rember having to use DOS a long time ago...forgot everything I learned, and never remembered learning subst. Thanks again.
